AMERICA AND ENGLAND
; Ambassador Harvey's first speech in England has been
..ui'miy praised and severely criticised. There is general ap
i..ou, nowever, among thinking men of both parties, of his
LUtMuueiit tnat the United States desires to co-operate with
wttwi, amain in handling the big tasks of modern civilization
iii ia nil tne easier to agree on this because the ambassador
i.uk case the desire either on abstract idealism or pn com
UuiUty of race and institutions, but on unity and common sense.
'"My country," he told the British, "stands ready to work
with yours because, first, it is to our own interest to do so,
and secondly, because it is to the advantage of both."
This is the simple truth which all the mischievous propa
ganda in the world cannot pervert or conceal. It is not a new
truth, either.. Friendly co-operation with Great Britain has
long been the established policy of the United States, in spite
of demagogic misrepresentations and efforts to stir up old ani
mosities between the two countries. For half a century the
Revolutionary War and tho War of 1812 and the minor tin
pleasantness of the Civil War have been forgotten bp sensi
ble statesmen, who had a farily clear notion of the spirit and
purpose of the two countries and saw Unit their destinies ought
to follow, parallel lines instead of crossing and thwarting each
other. I
It is more important for the Americans and the British to
stand together today than ever before in our history.' Our
harmonious relations with France are based mostly on senti
ment. That is all right as far as it goes. But in the case of
Great Britain; along, with sentiment and there is a good deal
of it there is hard fact.
Here are two great nations, eacn superior in some ways
and inferior in others, but roughly speaking, of somewhere near
equal power in the world; two nations of common language and
literature, common history, similar political and social Institu
tions,' similar-ideals. Despite trival differences, Americans find
it easier to understand and work with the British, in any part
of tho wprld, than with any other race whatsoever. The Brit
ish find it the same with Americans.
Here Is civilization grown very shaky, with tho future full
of uncertainty, and . with a vast amount of half-civilization
spread over tho world, to be shaped in the future by whatever
civilized powers and ideals arc dominant.
America and Britain, together, can literally guide the world,
for their own safety and tho good of mankind, spreading their
own enngiuenea laeais ana Keeping uown international rows
largely "by sheer force of influence. Nothing is to be thought
of ttyUie way of a formal alliance, but the highest interoatisi of
(ioth countries and of the majority of mankind point to a good
Working understanding between thorn; flow ' Ulltd hereafter.
